I don’t know about your storage carrots, but mine are not long for this world. Within the next couple of months, I need to get imaginative. I’d truly NEVER heard of carrot pie. Have you? It was absolutely delicious.

I have something to admit. I’m a picky eater. But it isn’t junk food I crave, it’s things that aren’t …
We’re having such fun trying these old-fashioned recipes. This one, Rice and Eggs, is simple and straightforward. I’d never thought to combine hard-boiled eggs with rice before, topped with hollandaise sauce. Next time, I’ll put it on a bed of spinach. Or I’ll sprinkle chopped celery onto the mound of rice before I top it with the sauce. Yum.

Soon enough, we’ll be making rhubarb pies. Without fail, these little prehistoric looking creatures will push up again from deep inside planet Earth.
These were full of flavor and a wonderful departure from peanut “butter” cookies. You must try these.


For the next few weeks, every Friday, we’re going to feature a recipe from the 1916 Comfort magazine. Today’s recipe, Egg Cutlets, is like nothing I’d ever eaten before. They were delish! With three grandgirls, what a great way to use up all our hard-boiled eggs this coming Easter. This gets my vote for a fantastic, unique brunch item. Definitely comfort food. Those turn-of-the-century Comfort Sisters had a few surprises up their sleeves.
